We investigate the decay process $J/\psi \rightarrow e^+ e^-\phi$, where the relatively clean electromagnetic (EM) transitions dominate at leading order at the tree level, while hadronic contributions arise only through hadronic loop…

The $J/\psi$ meson has negative $G$-parity so that, in the limit of isospin conservation, its decay into $\pi^+\pi^-$ should be purely electromagnetic. However, the measured branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi\to\pi^+\pi^-)$ exceeds by…

The observation of $\pi_1(1600) \to \pi \rho$ is shown in the flux-tube model to be compatible with this state being a hybrid meson with branching ratio to this channel $\sim 30%$. The $\pi \rho$ widths of other hybrids are related by…

We carry out a theoretical and Monte Carlo study on the $J/\psi$ decays into $\omega\pi\pi$ and $K\bar{K}\pi$ through intermediate subthreshold $\rho$ meson by using SU(3)-symmetric Lagrangian approach. It is found that the subthreshold…

Non-$D\bar{D}$ decay $\psppto \rhopi$ is searched for using a data sample of $(17.3\pm 0.5) pb^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESII detector at the BEPC. No $\rhopi$ signal is observed, and the upper limit of…

Some discrepancies between theory and experiment in the B -> pi K decays suggest the possibility of a new physics contribution with the structure of an electroweak penguin amplitude. If such a scenario is realised in nature, the branching…
